dc.description.abstractThis paper focused on rationalisation of WST Platform usage by Faculty Members for academic activities in the Faculty of Education, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. A quantitative research methodology was employed, a cross-sectional survey research design was used, and two (2) objectives were identified for this paper. The study comprised of 175 Faculty Members in the Faculty of Education, A.B.U., Zaria. This number excludes the staff on study leave, sabbatical, and secondment. A census sampling technique was adopted. A self-developed questionnaire was used. Descriptive statistics (frequency distribution, percentage, mean and standard deviation) were used to analyse the data collected from the respondents. This study discovered that the most common academic activities that Faculty Members in the Faculty of Education, A.B.U., Zaria, engaged in WST Platforms were document sharing and web communication. This study also revealed that accessibility and availability of Web Storage Technology Platforms was the most common rationale behind utilising WST Platforms by Faculty Members in the Faculty of Education, A.B.U., Zaria. The researcher recommends that; the management of ABU. Zaria, should encourage and motivate Faculty Members to engage all their academic activities in WST Platforms, especially web conferencing through sensitisation programs and other available means. Also, the WST Platforms service providers and management of A.B.U., Zaria, should join hands in creating awareness campaign on the rationales of utilising WST Platforms for academic activities, so that Faculty Members can take full advantage of WST Platforms.en_US
